Review: Pantene 3 Minute Miracle Conditioner

03 February 2015

I have a fairly simple hair routine: shampoo every other day, condition every day. I go through bottles of conditioner much faster because of this. I also only blow dry my hair and put styling products on if I have to make an extra effort to look nice. I have reached my ideal hair length and I love that it's not as high maintenance as when I had a pixie cut, nor do I look "perpetually tired" as when I had long locks.

When I had my hair cut and colored by JuRo Salon Exclusif a few months ago, they gave me a bottle each of shampoo and conditioner from the Super Smooth line of Pureology. Its sulfate-free formula ensured that my hair color stayed vibrant and my hair, healthy. However, I ran out of it already and as much as I would want to buy new ones, its price is too steep for me.

For new visitors of this blog, let me describe my hair as thick, unruly, and frizzy that it seems to have a life of its own. I have learned to expect less from hair products, especially shampoo and conditioner, just so I wouldn't be that disappointed if I don't see any of the effects I was promised. Still, I got excited when I saw teasers about the new beauty miracle that "everyone will be talking about." Could it be a miracle product for me?

Sample Room sent me samples of the new Pantene 3 Minute Miracle conditioner, and this is my review.

Smoothen 3 Months of Damage

Damaged hair is one that has lost its protective layer and thus feels rough. Damaged hair is also more negatively charged than healthy hair, causing frizz. To achieve smooth, silky and detangled hair, Pantene’s new formula has an improved conditioning agent or cationic polymer. This cationic polymer is positively charged to neutralize damaged portions of hair, and forms a shield to protect hair from future damage. This protective layer reduces the friction between individual hair fibers, resulting in easier rinsing and reduced tangling.

made my hair look shiny even without the use of a hair serum or cuticle coat

made my hair more manageable

smells really good! It's a mix of fruity and floral scents that are not overpowering nor too cloying.

offers immediate results

As the name suggests, you just have to leave the conditioner on for three minutes after rinsing your shampoo and squeezing out excess water, before rinsing it completely. :)

Pantene 3 Minute Miracle Conditioner in Total Damage Care and Hair Fall Control variants will be available in February 2015 for Php159.00 (180ml) and Php259.00 (340ml).
